UL Power

[ianboag]

One wonders if a UL Power 107 hp 4 would be a good upgrade for a 160. The 107 hp unit is just the 97 hp one with a higher compression ratio. Pretty much a bolt-in replacement for the 2200.

 

I like my 160 except that I miss the horses that made my previous J200 go so well.

 

Anyone out there done anything like this?

 

Yeah I know - Rotax-Rotax-Rotax - but hanging one on a 160 is a bit of a mission. The UL Power bolts on to Jab engine mounts and the prop sticks the right distance out of the cowl. Perhaps less important is that it is injected and FADEC'd and stuff ...

 

Cheers IB

They have done a lot of work in producing those engines. The way things are likely to go with Avgas. I would try to use an engine that is OK with mogas. I think some ul ones are..Nev
